This text seeks to illuminate, mainly for the electrical power
engineers of the future, the topic of large scale solar flux
gathering schemes, which arguably represent the major source of
renewable power available. The aim of the content is to impart,
from an electromagnetic perspective, a deep and sound understanding
of the topic of solar flux collection, ranging from the
characteristics of light to the properties of antennas. To do this
five chapters are employed to provide a thorough grounding in
relevant aspects of electromagnetism and electromagnetic waves
including optics, electromagnetic radiation and reception, aperture
antennas and array antennas and the quantum electrodynamics aspects
of optical absorption, as it relates to photovoltaic techniques.
The principles developed in these chapters are then used to
underpin and elucidate the main chapters on photovoltaic
collectors, concentrated solar power collectors, satellite based
collection systems and optical nantennas. To establish the novel
and transformative renewable technologies, which civilisation will
soon require, in order to achieve sustainability quickly and
effectively, the availability of professional engineers and
scientists with a thorough and commanding grasp of the fundamental
science is an absolutely essential prerequisite. This book provides
this for solar power generating systems.
